Other Notes: "Rather than hooking up both subs at once, I decided to evaluate them individually, starting with the eight-inch ICS8-MB. I think what surprised me most was its frequency response. Beale Street’s rated low frequency extension of 35Hz seems pretty accurate as a -3dB point. What that number doesn’t tell you, though, is that instead of the sharp drop off on the low end that I’m used to seeing with most subs, a graph of the ICS8-MB’s in-room response tapers off gracefully. In my room, with bass management applied by my Anthem MRX 710 receiver, I’d put the -3dB point closer to 32Hz or so, with the -6dB point somewhere in the neighborhood of 19Hz.
In other words, this sub pretty much rocks. What’s more, it does an incredible job of filling the room all by its lonesome. I cued up some of my favorite bass demos (Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, The Incredible Hulk, The Amazing Spider-Man) and found myself just as impressed by the deep, rich, powerful bass as I was by the fact that my ceiling remained pretty much silent."
